【0010】
【発明実施の形態】本発明の実施の形態を 例を挙げて説明すると、図1は本発明を実施した、枠と一体に薄く成型加工された爪楊枝である。
【0011】1は爪楊枝を支える枠であり、爪楊枝を支えると共に 爪楊枝の先端を保護している。
【0012】2は爪楊枝本体であり、先端を尖らしている。
【0013】3は爪楊枝本体と枠を切り離す為の溝であり、この部分で爪楊枝の厚みが、本体より薄くなっている。または、図3の4も3と同様に爪楊枝本体と枠を切り離す為の溝である。
【0014】この溝は、一本ずつ枠から手で切り離し可能な程度の 深さと細さになっている。
【0015】大きさと厚みは、キャッシュカードやクレジットカード程度か、それ以下である。
【0016】また、加工方法は、樹脂成型などを用いて一体成型されている。或いは、フイルムなどを切断するか、プレスで抜いて加工することが可能である。
【0017】爪楊枝を使用する場合は、手で一本ずつ爪楊枝の先端部分を切り離し用の溝4で切り離し、次に爪楊枝の根元部分を 切り離し用の溝3で数回折り曲げて切り離して使用する。
【0018】厚みが 厚紙程度の場合は、図2の断面図で 爪楊枝本体2の先端を厚み方向で尖らす必要は無い。
【0019】
【発明の効果】
本発明によれば、上記のように枠と一体に薄く成型加工された爪楊枝であるため、カードケースや財布に入れて携帯しても嵩張らず、また爪楊枝を カードケースや財布から取り出す場合は、枠を掴み簡単に取り出すことが出来る。
【0020】また、図4のように爪楊枝の本数を少なくして、枠を大きく取り、その枠の上に文字を刻印するか印刷することによって、広告の媒体として使用することが出来る。また、各種のサービス用として使用することも出来る。
【0021】図5は、本発明の爪楊枝の本数を少なくして、枠に文字を刻印もしくは、印刷するためのスペースを設けた、小型の携帯用爪楊枝である。図6は、本発明の爪楊枝の本数を少なくし、また、枠も小さくした例であり、どちらも飲食店やホテルなどでサービス用として使用できる。
【0022】また、どの大きさの爪楊枝も安価に製造できるため、携帯用、サービス用、広告用として利用できる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable toothpick in which several toothpicks and a frame for supporting the toothpicks are thinly and integrally molded.
[0002]
2. Description of the Related Art A toothpick has a well-known shape in which a tip of an elongated column is sharply pointed.
[0003] In addition, several hundreds of packages are packed together in a cylindrical tube, or one by one in a paper bag.
[0004]
By the way, when carrying a conventional toothpick, if several are put in a pocket or the like as it is, the toothpick gets stuck in the body or the toothpick is broken.
[0005] In addition, when carrying the card in a card case or wallet, it is difficult to remove the card case or wallet because the card case or wallet enters the bottom. Or they may drop when you open the card case or wallet.
[0006]
The present invention employs the following technical means in order to solve the above problems.
The present invention is characterized by a structure in which several toothpicks and a frame supporting the toothpicks are thinly and integrally molded.
According to the present invention, since the toothpick is integral with the frame that supports it, it does not move freely.
Further, since the size and thickness are about the same as or smaller than a cash card or a credit card, they do not become an obstacle even if they are put in a card case or a wallet, and the toothpick enters the bottom of the card case or the wallet. It does not drop when you open the card case or wallet.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to an example. FIG. 1 shows a toothpick which is thinly formed integrally with a frame and embodying the present invention.
Reference numeral 1 denotes a frame for supporting the toothpick, which supports the toothpick and protects the tip of the toothpick.
Reference numeral 2 denotes a toothpick main body, the tip of which is pointed.
Reference numeral 3 denotes a groove for separating the frame from the toothpick main body. At this portion, the thickness of the toothpick is smaller than that of the main body. Alternatively, 4 in FIG. 3 is also a groove for separating the frame from the toothpick main body similarly to 3.
The grooves are so deep and thin that they can be separated from the frame one by one by hand.
The size and thickness are about the same as cash cards and credit cards or less.
Further, the processing method is performed by integrally molding using resin molding or the like. Alternatively, it is possible to cut a film or the like, or to extract and process it by a press.
When a toothpick is used, the tip of the toothpick is cut off one by one by a cutting groove 4 by hand, and then the root of the toothpick is bent several times by a cutting groove 3 for use.
When the thickness is about thick paper, it is not necessary to sharpen the tip of the toothpick main body 2 in the thickness direction in the sectional view of FIG.
[0019]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, since the toothpick is thinly molded integrally with the frame as described above, the toothpick is not bulky when carried in a card case or purse, and when the toothpick is taken out of the card case or purse, You can easily take out the frame by grabbing it.
Also, as shown in FIG. 4, by reducing the number of toothpicks, making a large frame, and engraving or printing characters on the frame, it can be used as an advertising medium. It can also be used for various services.
FIG. 5 shows a small portable toothpick according to the present invention, in which the number of toothpicks is reduced and a space is provided for engraving or printing characters on the frame. FIG. 6 shows an example in which the number of toothpicks of the present invention is reduced and the frame is also reduced, and both of them can be used for services in restaurants and hotels.
Since toothpicks of any size can be manufactured at low cost, they can be used for carrying, for service, and for advertising.
